Flexion And Extension

Snapping pes anserinus syndrome is an often encountered cause of medial knee snapping. It results from impingement and translation of the gracilis tendon or semitendinosus tendon over the osseous structures of the knee during active flexion and extension. Ultrasonography is often the diagnostic imaging test of choice in cases of mechanical snapping. We report 2 cases of painful snapping pes anserinus and highlight the value of dynamic ultrasound in making an accurate diagnosis so as to direct care.

Rotary Instability

Twenty-three patients who have had a Macintosh type of fasciodesis for anterolateral rotary instability of the knee have been studied. Overall 73% were improved by this procedure; of those whose only instability was when turning on the run, 90% improved. These results have been compared with a series of 51 patients who had a pes anserinus transfer for anteromedial instability (D'Arcy 1978). It is suggested that both static and dynamic reconstructions have a place in the management of knee instability resulting from anterior cruciate injury.

AbstractThirty patients are assessed who underwent pes anserinus transfer for antero-medial instability of the knee. Twenty one of these returned to a normal seagoing category after a mean period of 5 months 1 week. The value of pes anserinus transfer in the treatment of antero-medial instability is discussed.
